Those Who Choose To Receive The God Of Hope Who Fills Us With All Joy And Peace In Believing!
Those Who Wait For The Lord, Who Renews Our Strength, Mounting Up On Wings Of Eagles, That We Shall Run And Not Be Weary!
For we live by faith not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5: 7
We are people who are called to believe, to trust.
To trust Jesus’s words over what we see.
To trust Jesus’s words over what we feel.
To trust that He is faithful.
To trust that He sees us.
To trust that He is working for our good.
To trust that He promises are real.
To trust He will bring them to pass.
Paul here is speaking to this church.
He is encouraging them in the hope we have.
Hope for a good future.
Hope for what Jesus promises all people.
Hope for what Jesus came to give all people.
Hope for the whole reason of this season of life.
That we will live and not die.
That we have been given eternal life.
That when we close our eyes on this side of Heaven, we are actually opening our eyes.
To see, to taste, to touch, to breathe in everything that we missed, hoped for, longed for, waited for.
Our eyes opening to eternity.
Our eyes opening to see everyone who went before us.
Our eyes opening to seeing God face to face.
Our eyes opening to joy unspeakable, completeness like we have never known, health and healing, renewal of youth and energy, new purposes, new adventures, new hopes, a fullness of love that is higher than the Heavens.
May we know that we know that we know this is the faith we live by, we walk in, we live by, the truth of what is real, eternal life through Jesus Christ.
